I was so excited to see gilded flakes in the new mini catalogue. They are so much to play with. One world of warning is that once out of the pot they won’t go back in, they just seem to mushroom and grow. Consequently they last for ages. I put mine in a tin to keep the mess in.

There are a number of ways to use gilded flakes. In the video below I show you how to use it with heat & stick powder and versamark. You use it though with Tombow and tear & tape. I will show be doing these techniques in later videos so make sure you are subscribed to my YouTube to get alerts.

This little post-it note book as a magnetic closure to keep everything neat and closed. It is a very simple project but looks so cute to keep in your bag or desk. The patterned paper is from the family stack. I found the sentiment in the Butterfly Gala stamp set and it matches this project perfectly.

The Gang’s All Meer Card – Stampin’ Up!

I have a card to share with you today using the sale-a-bration offering stamp set “The Gang’s All Meer”. These adorable little meerkats are coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers.

The Gang’s All Meer Card – Stampin’ Up!

Aren’t these little guys so cute? I’m surprised to see how obsessed people are with meerkats as they are not animals we find in the UK. As some of you may know my mother was born in South Africa. My grandparents were farmers in the Orange Free State and we had meerkats on the farm. You may not know but meerkats are insectivores which is great. They hoover up all these nasty creepy crawlies but also do like eggs. My Granny kept hens for personal use and to sell the eggs. You had to be wary of the meerkats as they loved to get into the hen house and steal the eggs. The naughty little rascals!!

In this card, I’ve used the main stamp and just repeat stamped it across the card to get a whole gang of meerkats. I love colouring in and found it so therapeutic colouring in all these little guys.

measurements

  • Early Espresso A6 Cardbase – (This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half)
  • Subtles Designers Series Paper – Early Espresso – 14.35cm x 10cm
  • Whisper White 14.35cm x 10cm

I have a beautiful floral card to share with you today. It uses the Pop of Petals stamps set and matching punch. This card does pop and is a lovely bright congratulations card for any flower lover.

I love the pinks in this card. They are Melon Mambo, Rococo Rose and Lovely Lipstick. These colours all work so well together. I’ve given this card some bling with rhinestone centres for the flowers.

These little flowers from the Pop of Petals set are a great way to use up all those scraps we have lying around our craft rooms. A card like this one is great for children to make as they can stamp all the flowers and punch them out. They can have great fun arranging and glueing down all the flowers and leaves however takes their fancy.

  • Blueberry Bushel A6 cardbase (A6 cardbase is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half)
  • Whisper White – 14.35cm x 10cm
